Strengthen your understanding of best practices when it comes to ethics and using EFT. Although necessary and part of our work, the topic of ethics can be one we shy away from, dismiss, or don't fully comprehend the value. Come ready to explore how best to respond to ethical issues from an EFT and AZBBHE viewpoint using case studies, as well as checking in with your own beliefs and potential blocks when it comes to ethical issues. Throughout our time, we will discuss how documentation and keeping organized in your notes is an ethical issue and will save you both time and worry! This training certificate is valid for AZBBHE continuing education licensure renewal.

Transforming Highly Reactive Relationships
with Helene Igwebuike
Date: Friday, December 8, 2023 | Time: 9am-11am Arizona time (MST)
Location: Online
Cost: $25 for AZEFT members | $45 for non-members
** 20% discount offered to group practices of 5 or more who each register for the event; email us for the discount code
Certificate of Attendance: 2 hours
This workshop will focus on how to help couples transform reactivity to a resource for self-regulation and co-regulation. We will cover key concepts and interventions for effectively holding both partners and their triggered aspects of self so they can share their vulnerability from a place of greater awareness, compassion and clarity. You will become more skillful in intervening to help partners regulate their reactive emotions in the heat of the moment and transform reactivity to connectivity, curiosity and accessible responsive engaged (ARE) communication. Demonstrations will be used to model the different approaches. No prior EFT training is required to attend is open to all therapists who are working with highly reactive couples!
Learning objectives:
1. Build confidence in stepping in and holding reactive partners by using early signs of reactivity as an ally to interrupt and slow down intense dysregulation and escalation.
2. Learn how to help partners embrace and voice their vulnerability rather than project rigidly held beliefs and rehash historical coping strategies that reinforce adversarial pattern of relating.
3. Transform anger, shame, blame, panic and overwhelm using attachment lens, ‘parts’ work and an embodied approach to assembling and distilling core emotions that helps advocate for the unmet needs of the tender wounded aspects of self.
